Seller: Palinurus Antiquarian Books

Title: Gardening in India
Author: Warde, B M
Seller: Palinurus Antiquarian Books (United States)
Condition: Good; some wear to the wrappers.
Description: [Simla, India]: [Army Press], ca1890. First Edition.. Original cloth backed printed wrappers; text block stapled.. Good; some wear to the wrappers.. Large 8vo (appx. 240 x 155 mm), [2], [1] - 9, [10 - blank], [i] - ii, 285, [286 - blank] pp. Unsigned. "The main object of this little manual is to present as far as possible ... all the information and guidance necessary for the successful and profitable cultivation of the flowers, fruit and vegetables worth growing .... Many famous books have been written from time to time on the subject of gardening in India, but from an amateur's point of view the chief drawback in most of these is that they are either too sketchy to be of real practical value to the beginner or, on the other hand, are burdened with a superfluity of technical complexities which though perhaps desirable from a specialist's point of view for the completion and standardisation of such works, more often than not prove confusing and tiresome to the ordinary lover of gardening" (Introduction). The text is laid out in dictionary form with a substantial number of entries that do not relate directly to plants, e.g., "frames and pits" or "garden law". The plant entries bring a good deal of personal commentary from the author. No copy located.

Seller: B & B Rare Books, Ltd., ABAA

Title: Auguries of Innocence
Author: Smith, Patti
Seller: B & B Rare Books, Ltd., ABAA (United States)
Condition: Fine
Description: New York: Ecco, 2005 First edition, uncorrected proof. Signed by Smith on title page. Publisher's gray wrappers, lettered in white, black, and red, with "Uncorrected Proof" to top left of front wrapper, and sticker with publisher's publicist Clare McMahon's contact information to front wrapper. Fine book, with just a few spots of rubbing to spine. With promotional letter from McMahon laid in. Overall, excellent copy. Patti Smith's first poetry collection in more than ten years, Auguries of Innocence contains poems including "The Lovecrafter," "Sleep of the Dodo," "The Long Road," "Birds of Iraq," "The Geometry Blinked Ruin Unimaginable," and "Mummer Love." "Birds of Iraq" is a particularly interesting poem, weaving the United States' bombing of Baghdad with biographical details of Virginia Woolf. The book's title comes from William Blake's same-titled poem, and Smith includes a couplet from Blake's poem as an epigraph: "A skylark wounded in the wing, / A cherubim does cease to sing." "[Patti Smith's] influences are eclectic and striking: Blake, Rimbaud, Picasso, Arbus, and Johnny Appleseed. Smith is an American original; her poems are oracles for our times." . Signed by Author. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Dust Jacket Included. Galley/Proof.

Condition: Good

Thomson, lettered in white and pink.

Overall, a sturdy copy. In this seminal feminist work, and fore runner to the inspirational book genre, Anne Lindbergh meditates on profound questions related to inner peace and harmony. She explores five aspects of a woman's life, each of which is suggested by a different shell from the beach, namely the whelk shell, moon shell, double sunrise, oyster shell, and argonauta. In addition to writing, Anne Lindbergh was a highly accomplished aviator - she became the first woman to obtain a glider pilot's license in 1930 and was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame in 1979. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Good/Dust Jacket Included.
